根据新加坡海事和港务局(MPA)于2024年7月24日提供的一份声明，受损油轮Hafnia Nile的运营商Hafnia目前正在与新加坡海事和港务局(MPA)讨论将船上的石脑油货物安全转移到安全地点。

2024年7月19日，悬挂新加坡国旗的Hafnia Nile与悬挂圣多美和普林西比国旗的Ceres I相撞，在新加坡白礁岛东北约55公里（35英里）处起火。

西班牙能源公司Cepsa租用的巴拿马型油轮Hafnia Nile正在运输约30万桶石脑油，这是日本炼油商Eneos收购的石化产品的原材料。

碰撞发生后，Hafnia报道称，一个专家小组正在检查油轮的受损部分，该油轮仍与马来西亚水域的拖船相连。

初步检查发现Hafnia Nile的机舱受损，受影响区域有轻微的油光泄漏。

此后，一个救援队登上了这艘船，并从其中一艘拖船上转移了设备，以控制和阻止任何局部渗漏。

目前，Hafnia正与马来西亚海事局(MMD)和新加坡海事管理局(MPA)合作，为该船制定拖航计划，并确定货物转移和维修的位置。

这艘油轮目前位于距离新加坡约100公里的地方，Hafnia也在那里组织清理工作。

事件发生在新加坡的搜救区域内，该区域延伸到该国的水域之外，并与包括马来西亚在内的几个邻国接壤。

马来西亚和新加坡官员正在调查这一事件。

Hafnia Nile号上的22名船员被新加坡海军舰艇RSN Supreme救起并返回新加坡。

与此同时，马来西亚官员于2024年7月21日扣留了这艘在圣多美和普林西比注册的Ceres I号，关闭了AIS应答器，并由两艘拖船拖着离开了事故现场。

马来西亚海事局和马来西亚海事处将在“Ceres I”被扣留后对事件进行进一步调查。

7月23日，第五艘具有深海拖曳能力的拖船抵达现场，加入了其他四艘具有石油响应和消防能力的拖船。

Hafnia和MPA目前正在讨论货物转移的安全地点，并为受损船只制定拖航计划。

Hafnia, the operator of the fire-damaged oil tanker Hafnia Nile, is currently in discussions with Singapore’s Maritime and Port Authority (MPA) to safely transfer the vessel’s naphtha cargo to a safe location, according to a statement provided by the MPA on July 24, 2024.



On July 19, 2024, the Singapore-flagged Hafnia Nile collided with the Sao Tome and Principe-flagged Ceres I, catching fire around 55 kilometers (35 miles) northeast of Singapore’s Pedra Branca Island.



The Hafnia Nile, a Panamax tanker chartered by Spanish energy company Cepsa, was transporting approximately 300,000 barrels of naphtha, a raw material for petrochemicals acquired by Japanese refiner Eneos.



Following the collision, Hafnia reported that a team of experts is inspecting the damaged portions of the tanker, which remains connected to tugs in Malaysian waters.



Initial inspections found engine room damage on the Hafnia Nile and a light oil sheen leaking from the affected area.



A salvage team has since boarded the vessel and transferred equipment from one of the tugs there to contain and stop any localized seepage.



Hafnia is working with Malaysia Marine Department (MMD) and Singapore’s MPA to develop a towage plan for the vessel and determine a location for the cargo transfer and repairs.



The tanker is currently located about 100 kilometers from Singapore, where Hafnia is also organizing a cleanup effort.



The incident occurred within Singapore’s search and rescue region, which extends beyond the country’s waterways and borders several neighbouring countries, including Malaysia.



The incident is being investigated by the Malaysian and Singaporean officials.



The 22 crewmembers onboard the Hafnia Nile were rescued by the Republic of Singapore navy vessel RSN Supreme and returned to Singapore.



Meanwhile, Malaysian officials detained the Sao Tome and Principe-registered Ceres I on July 21, 2024, a day after it went dark, by turning off its AIS transponder and departing the accident scene towed by two tugboats.



Maritime Malaysia and the Malaysian Marine Department will conduct further investigations into the incident following the detention of Ceres I.



On July 23, a fifth tug with deep sea towing capacity arrived at the site, joining four other tugs with oil response and firefighting capabilities.



Hafnia and MPA are currently discussing a safe site for the cargo transfer and developing towage plans for the damaged vessel.
